Students will have an introduction to basic care, safety, and first aid for infants and children. Participants will also learn about the developmental stages of infants through school-age children and design activities to use with each age. Health, nutrition, and sleep for each developmental age will be taught. Students will have hands-on experience practicing CPR, learning the Heimlich Maneuver, and how to use an EpiPen. Finally, students will design a babysitting advertisement for their business, take home their own student First Aid Kit, and receive a certificate of completion. This program can also be used to earn the Girl Scouts babysitting badge.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.shorecrest.org\/school-life\/summer-programs\" target=\"_blank\" role=\"button\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNEXT CLASSES- SUMMER 2026 @ SHORECREST\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<p>Congratulations to Tampa&#8217;s newest future Babysitters!

She has a passion for educating children of all ages with her certification in grades K-6 and more than six years of professional experience in our Florida schools. After making the difficult decision to leave her full-time teaching role to stay at home with her little boy, Kristina wanted to continue the enrichment of young minds. She and her sister, Samantha Tracy, found something special.
